EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a pivotal moment in Italian history during the Risorgimento, as Giuseppe Garibaldi and his Thousand set sail for Sicily in Marsala in 1860. The image exudes a sense of determination and bravery as Garibaldi leads his troops towards their mission of unifying Italy.
The lithography by Baroffio from the 19th century beautifully depicts the army on boats, ready to embark on their expedition. The vibrant colors of the flags fluttering in the wind add to the dramatic scene, symbolizing hope and patriotism for a united Italy.
Giuseppe Garibaldi, a revered figure in Italian history, is portrayed as a fearless leader who inspired his men to fight for independence. His legacy as a military strategist and revolutionary hero is evident in this powerful image that captures the spirit of unity and freedom.
As we gaze upon this historical print, we are transported back to a time when Italy was divided into separate states, each with its own ruler. The Risorgimento movement sought to change that by uniting these regions under one flag - an aspiration that would eventually be realized through acts of courage like those depicted here.
In conclusion, this lithograph serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by Garibaldi and his Thousand in pursuit of liberty and national identity. It stands as a testament to their unwavering dedication to the cause of Italian unification during one of its most critical moments.
